I have previously recommended the interface used in the Alice programming environment. (www.Alice.org) The object browser can be directly acted upon, or the objects can be drag/dropped into the programming pane where each of the object's methods are exposed, then the parameters for each method are supplied. It quickly becomes an intuitive process. The resulting statement makes the syntax obvious and each choice can be updated by reselecting from a picklist. Even if you have no interest in animation, the programming interface does a really good job of providing flexibility without being too complicated. ----- This list is sponsored by AGIRI: http://www.agiri.org/email To unsubscribe or change your options, please go to: http://v2.listbox.com/member/?member_id=8660244&id_secret=79873507-07eb34
